We can stay up says Hyde hero Scott Spencer

Hyde goal-hero Scott Spencer believes their squad is good enough to avoid the drop from the Blue Square Premier.

Scott Spencer had put Hyde two goals up at Braintree Town last weekend

Scott Spencer’s last-gasp equaliser earned the Tigers their first point of 2013 as they drew 1-1 at home to Macclesfield on Saturday.

Tonight they travel to Telford looking for their first win of the year which could see them leapfrog rivals County and steer themselves away from the relegation zone.

“I know we’ve got enough in the squad to stay up so it’s not even that I’m hopeful,” said Spencer. “I’m looking forward to the last 15 games or whatever we’ve got left, we should just go out, play football and have a buzz.”
